REVIEW: Island Peril by Jill Sorenson

Island Peril (Aftershock #3.5) by Jill Sorenson:Island Peril is a fitting title for this vigorous excursion through California’s Channel Island State
Park. This is a standalone novella from the Aftershock series; the short length makes it a perfect lunchtime read.

Ella Hammond tags along on a kayaking trip with her sister, Abby, and her niece, Brooke. Ella quickly finds herself alone with the sexy guide, Paul Dawson – lucky girl. I was quickly enamored by Ella and Paul. Ella is nerdy and shy – Paul is playful and flirtatious – making the chemistry flirty and fun.

Things become intense when they are trapped on a deserted island, hiding from drug smugglers. The author stuffed action, suspense, and some naked island fun into a short story. I hope we get future glimpse of this couple in Abby’s upcoming story, Backwoods.
